This is the story of our Guinea Pig “Punky”, that got shared on the Alliance of Registered Homoeopaths blog and made its way into Facebook back to my News Feed a few months later! Homeopathic remedies work great in animals and help to keep them healthy in a more natural way. Cataracts are difficult to treat but in this case, it was a success!

“I would like to add a little anecdote to the cataract topic; I know it is a guinea pig, nevertheless, I find it interesting!
Last year, I treated Punky, my guinea pig, for some fat lumps under his belly. The only reason I did it was because they were big enough to bother him, one was close to his leg and it was very big. My daughters asked me several time to give him something but I have to say I do not feel comfortable prescribing for animals, they don’t say much!
Anyway, I gave him some therapeutic remedies with great success and the girls were happy, and so was I.
Soon after, my daughter held the guinea pig and called me, very distressed, the poor thing had a white eye!!! It was quite thick and blue looking so I explained he had a cataract, he was old and it happens.
Again they ask me to give something to this poor thing but I know cataracts can be tricky to treat and I have not heard of much success. I have never treated one myself but …. I had nothing to lose. So I went to old Clark prescriber and looked under cataracts:
“…….. later stages Silic, Calc fluorica 30-200 followed by Sulphur 200c
one dose per week for 2 weeks and repeat…. Many cataracts will recede under this treatment.”
Having nothing better to go for, I put a Calc-fluor 30 in his drinking bottle and forgot about it. About a week after, I was called again by my daughter who was holding the guinea pig and she was shocked, but so was I!
The cataract was nearly gone, I would say 90%!
I still gave him the Sulphur for a couple of weeks and the cataract never came back! This is nearly a year after.
I do not know what to think. It is one of this miracle that we see with homoeopathy and I wish it would have happened with a patient but I have never treated anyone for that. But Punky is happy and so my daughters. It was truly amazing to see what therapeutics can do even without treating the totality.
Latest update:
Punky died at the age of 7 years old without the return of cataracts!
